57:21 there’s actually a crucial difference between fairy godmothers and King Magnifico and it’s how they treat the magic. We see Magnifico treating magic like it’s the ultimate solution hence he’s studied it and when something seems more powerful he feels threatened and wants more more more (kinda like our real life corporate/billionaire villains) and thus the magic becomes a crutch or a drug and that’s what defeats him. For fairy godmothers the magic is there to HELP you not do the work for you. Fairy godmother herself comes only when Cinderella is at her lowest point and gives her the hope and confidence to pick up the pieces with the ride and dress to have a night of fun at the ball which gives her the hope and confidence to take her chance at a great escape from her stepfamily, which also gives a poetic justice to her stepfamily for their abuse of power so there’s a balance. Furthermore fairy godmothers aren’t queens or anything but operate on human level as a humble guide and friend rather than playing god Furthermore Magnifico judged the wishes based on benefit towards HIS kingdom and ultimately utility. Fairy godmothers help with your dreams based on your inner character, as Asha thought in the beginning "to the good and worthy," or when the Blue Fairy says how Geppetto has always worked to bring happiness to others and gives Pinocchio life but not the human body just yet.
Never even heard of this but I'm here to show love and support to Sam & Maria! :) Great reaction of course, so excited to see what's next and next, and next! :) XO
This was suppose to be for the 100yr anniversary of Disney. They did minimum to no promotion at all on such a cute movie 😢which has so many references to the old Disney movies and wishes. Also the scoring was amazing! The lyrics weren’t that good to me in general but the comedy was actually funny and the characters were pretty fun to watch and see interact lol Also it took me a min but I think the King became the Magic Mirror 😂
I really, really enjoyed this movie. The music, the story, the villain, the references to past Disney. I was genuinely surprised to hear how many people apparently hated it.
I *hate* that I have to leave for a few hours with 15 minutes left on this video, but I am really enjoying this film so far. I don't know what people are complaining about if this film continues to be like this.
Well, it's ok for us if you come back to it 😊 I know, it's a bummer cause we really enjoyed this movie and hoped it would do at least ok for our channel - Sam
@@samandmariachannel I think it is funny that you didn't realized that asha is THE FAIRY GODMOTHER from cinderella and magnifico is the mirror on the wall in snow white or the 7 friends represents the 7 dwarfs this is the origin to all of the Disney movies if you don't believe me with the comparisons look them up and you will see the hints that were left behind including that the queen might be a younger version of the evil queen in snow white before she turned evil (my theory is that she got older and remarried but still loved her ex-husband who is in the mirror and got jealous of her 12 year old step daughter snow white especially when the man in the mirror said that she was more fair than her so she turned to the dark book like magnifico and became the first evil character of Disney in fact just compare their pictures back to back they are very similar)
@@samandmariachannel Actually darthcicc2857 is wrong. Asha is the first fairy godmother ever. This means Asha and the Fairy Godmother from Cinderella are NOT ONE IN THE SAME! wish 1400s Cinderella 1600s. That means Asha is the one who trains the fairy godmother who appears in Cinderella. The cloak and wand are passed down.
Looking forward to hearing your review of the movie. Sorry I can't watch it live but I wound up in the hospital for a couple of days after blacking out and having zero hearing when I came to. Quite the fright. My hearing is starting to come back slowly so I'd rather save the video to watch when I can hear again than to watch it with the captions on. BUT I had to make sure to like the video right away; hope it helps. Love watching the two of you - your chemistry is rom-com worthy and that just makes me smile!

That’s great to hear 😊 It’s a fun movie and we’re really bummed that it got unjustly negative reviews. Pretty much all the criticism can be applied to other Disney movies. This one isn’t an odd one out - Maria
Finished watching and I really like this film. Though not dull, I don't feel the characters are as charismatic as those in most other Disney films, but I found the actual story very enjoyable. I feel my mental health is one of the reasons, but the loss of dreams and how that affects people is an intriguing plot to me. I admit this is not my favorite Disney film, but I truly don't understand the number of people rating 'Star' so poorly. I wonder if the vibe of songs played a part in it. I liked the songs, but none of them were a blow you out of the water performance that many Disney films have. This was already on my list to eventually watch, but I think I will be watching the full film soon with one of my niblings.
(At 5:03) You want to know the sad part about her friends? They're all based off the Seven Dwarfs… even the girls. From left to right including Simon off screen (who is last) we got: 1) Happy 2) Sneezy 3) Dopey 4) Doc 5) Bashful 6) Grumpy And… 7) Sleepy
This is just a drop in the bucket for you guys, but trying to do a little something because I am flabbergasted at the abysmal number of views this video has gotten so far.
Thanks Amanda. It's more than a drop in the bucket right now🙏. We're also surprised by the lack of interest in this movie, but we can't win em all. Hopefully Trolls does a lot better 😊 - Sam
@@samandmariachannel I did not see 'Trolls' until last year, but I know that it does have a decent size fan base so I hope that translates into views for you guys. Already watched the video for it on Patreon and enjoyed it. I was totally waiting for the comments about the glitter when you said you were going to do that film for the channel.
I've said in other vids that Magnifico is a narcissistic cult leader. The way the new people gave their wishes, felt uncertain, then felt encouraged by the crowd to feel better about this concerning feeling they had is SO cult-like.
I thought the art style was an interesting choice I think if they had just used it for the backgrounds and then the characters were higher quality like tangled or frozen it would have been a bit more compelling. I do love all the nods to Disneys 100 years.
Funny little thing that happened to me that i thought i would share just for fun. When i went to see this movie the entire theatre was empty lol. No one wanted to see it but me lol. Honestly that experience being alone in a movie theatre was more fun then the actual movie lol
As far as Asha going for her family’s wishes first there is a logic to that A) the wishes are the size of like grapefruits so how many can you expect her to carry alone without damaging them? B) even if she did get as many as possible Magnifico and others could prob notice C) grab a bunch of random wishes to give to the people they belong to? Yea that conversation is gonna go well. “Hey random neighbors at whose houses I am suddenly dropping in unannounced at! I snuck into the king’s study and got your wishes back to you so you can pursue/figure it out yourself even though I don’t know if you’ll consent to it or become crime accessories.” If you’re getting people’s wishes back for them to figure out at least start with people you know and are closest to
@@LiMe251 Exactly and she does show she knows that in the beginning when suggesting giving the wishes back to the people instead of holding them under roof and erasing memories of them so they're not automatically granted but people can do something about it with "if they're dangerous then they can be stopped" so either the person or people around them can help reevaluate or take responsibility if the wish is dangerous or has consequences or consider less harmful methods in some way or another, but those who don't take responsibility for their wish's consequences or make bad wishes are people who should be stopped but not with using magic or controlling their memories or thoughts as a shortcut.
@@donnguyen1107 In order to protect the kingdom from unintended harm from a wish and desire that could be disastrous. This is no way means that they didn't have a choice.
@@sunnymartinez331 Except it's essentially THE LAW to gain citizenship or at age 18 when you're supposed to grow up, make decisions for yourself and step into the greater world, and furthermore it's also LAW that you can't even see the wish in order to figure out the consequences for yourself or refine it and the magic prevents you from even remembering it in order to figure those things out. And even if there are consequences, we know there's always the possibility of getting back up, taking responsibility and doing something about that too and that's what allows people to grow and find balance with themselves and others.
@@donnguyen1107 Headcanon. Show me where it is absolutely stated that you verifiably are required to give your wish at the ceremony. I'll give you the best example there is to the contrary. In "Welcome to Rosas," Asha says, "You get to give your wish in a ceremony." YOU GET TO. Not, "YOU HAVE TO." She is essentially saying when you become a citizen and/or you turn 18 you are given the opportunity. Miss me with the bs. Come back to me when you show me where Magnifico mandates the wishes to be given to him.
@@sunnymartinez331 Except "welcome to rosas" is basically a kingdom advertisement selling that their custom is to give a wish away at 18 and that it's good for them which at first Asha and everyone else is sold on until later. Furthermore, people saying you get to do something can be a form of persuasion or coercion, like they're bargaining or bribing you. Later the two new citizens Helena and Esteban are said to be "ready to give their wishes" so they're new and have been thinking it over with a ceremony coming up but then what's the alternative, with "you're gonna be very happy here I promise you" as the persuasion. Once without the wish their faces are basically numb, confused and hesitant while someone shouts forget without regret. And notice to the public, Magnifico says it's the people's wishes, but alone or at least with his wife he calls them HIS wishes not the people's so there is an ulterior bit of hoarding there. And like i said its a RULE that you can't even see them once given and you can't even remember what you wished for in order to nurture or tame it.
you never even got one single reference now that is truly painful it's so painfully obvious that asha is the fairy godmother and magnifico is the evil queen's magic mirror
I liked the movie, but I wish it had been better than what it was... I honestly just would have liked the pacing to be a little slower. Give us a chance to see the heroic Magnifico and slowly learn about how his benevolence had been warped in his mind. to an arrogance.... and I'd have liked his arrogance to have come out a bit slower... before he totally turns to evil. but I'm so glad you agreed how it would have been nice if Magnifico had a chance to redeem himself or at least show signs of coming back to the good man he was when he was younger.
It's sad how this film was overly criticize and hated by critics even internet critics on RUclips and other social media calling it the worst Disney animated film that came out from the Disney Company since Chicken Little and the Black Cauldron. I will say it isn't one the best movie Disney ever made, but it's nowhere near as the worst as people make it out to be. I myself see as a fun and average film. It could've been done better and the writing should've had more work or done better with the animation. But I did had fun with the film regardless.
Well said. We agree and feel the same about a few other recent releases. I think a lot of people are just kind of angry right now because times are tough and it's easy to vent on a piece of media - Sam
Theres a reason that this movie failed on every level. Instead of paying homage to 100 years of disney, they made a movie representing what the company is today. A soulless company producing entertainment by corporate committee who is more concerned about a political message than their own profits, let alone caring about the fans.
Genuine question, what is the "political" message in this movie specifically? Also what "political" messages have been in Disney's recent films? And I mean actual political messages, NOT just LGBTQ+ characters or couples existing and having families because showing different types of families that exist in the real world is NOT political
@oncerand_directioner that is actual political messaging. You don't see it because that is your worldview. For someone who views Mohammad as the final prophet and Allah as the God above all, seeing a movie with a character praising the prophet Mohammad would not be seen as political, it would simply be a correct portrayal of the world in that persons mind. Can you understand that? You may see lgbtq representation as simply what the world is and should be. Other people do not see it that way. And when it is something that goes completely against tradition, whether right or wrong, that is political. Can you see that? Just because it's your world view does not mean it's not political.
@oncerand_directioner and it's easily provable that it is political messaging. All of the examples of lgbtq representation are straight up REMOVED from the tv/movies upon release to Chinese, east Asian, and middle eastern countries who do not like that. If it's not political, why would they remove it from the movies in areas of the world that do not agree with it?
@@__thebadger No. Just because a group of REAL people is unusual to YOU or doesn't fit YOUR worldview does not mean it's "political" because these are human beings, not concepts or ideas. These people's lives and experiences deserve to be represented in the media just as much as yours and mine because just like us, they also love entertainment and are Disney consumers/fans as well and deserve to have their own stories told on screen as well. Them being in movies does NOT take away anything from straight people or religious people-especially when they already have MANY Disney movies already that perfectly represents them. Representation is not like pie where you'll get less if someone else gets a slice
@oncerand_directioner okay, so you did not read a single thing I said. It's not just them putting people in movies, it's actively promoting it by showing it in a positive light, and never a negative light. They don't just show it, they talk about it. And that is political. Whether you agree or not, doesn't matter. It's objectively political to promote these ideas. And regardless of anything, disney has every right to do it, and people have every right to NOT consume it. You can cry all day and Night about it, but the when disney puts these things in the product, the product fails, and we have dozens of examples to prove it.

@oncerand_directioner okay, so you did not read a single thing I said. It's not just them putting people in movies, it's actively promoting it by showing it in a positive light, and never a negative light. They don't just show it, they talk about it. And that is political. Whether you agree or not, doesn't matter. It's objectively political to promote these ideas. And regardless of anything, disney has every right to do it, and people have every right to NOT consume it. You can cry all day and Night about it, but the when disney puts these things in the product, the product fails, and we have dozens of examples to prove it.
Very meh for a Disney princess movie
